Re: estate taxes
Under NY Tax section 952, "The tax imposed by this subsection shall be an amount equal to the maximum amount allowable against the federal estate tax as a credit for state death taxes under section two thousand eleven of the internal revenue code." Therefore, the amount is $1 million.
